    Leeds. The home of the 3 in 1 haircut. Was always a great town to party in the 90s. Dave beer should be given the keys to Leeds, huge figure in the club scene.

    Did the scene back then, The Warehouse and The Gallery were bangin'. The greatest era and the best clubs. Steve Luigi, Pete Tong, Dave Beer, Paul Woolford.

    That was what I loved about speedQueen. Like she said, It wasn't about the drugs. Loved how sober everyone was in there, music lovers not druggies.

      Are you sure? There was loads of people off their heads in there. Not everyone but plenty were.

      You can love the music and be a hardened drug user infact I would say that you are not a true music lover untill you have experienced that clubbing experience spangled.

    The bouncer @12,10 chucked me out of the magestics my girlfriend was paying me in but he thought I had dodged him. Waited outside for 4 hours in rain till she came out 😁

    This is a long shot, but does anyone remember a club/bar in Leeds ( I think it was called ) backers? I went to leeds late 1998 or 99 for a weekend, needless to say I cannot remember if that was the right name for the club/bar, lol.

      We went to Majestic's first then to the other place. great times indeed. Majestic night club is still the best club I have ever been to.

      @@Sharkbar_ I guess it’s possible it was nicknamed backers by locals, I just knew it as basics and knew it was run by Dave beer. If we weren’t going to cream in Liverpool or sankeys in Manchester, We would go to Leeds, late 90’s early 2000 and would do majestics first and then end up in back2basics for the latter part of the night. Majestics was a much bigger venue but I preferred the music in basics

      You mean Bacchus. A cafe in the Merrion Centre by day and then became an unlicensed nightclub on a Saturday night.
